FOOD Products

Excerpt of the wide range of applications in the food sector:

Packaging of pumpable food
by clip machines / chub machines (chubmaker)

The CHUB system is the optimal packaging solution for almost all pumpable products: from liver sausage and soft cheese to sauces, mayonnaise, butter or jam.
CHUB machines do not require prefabricated packaging material, but work on the basis of cost-effective flat film. The clips are made of round wire, which is placed on a coile and consistently unrolled during the packaging process. This saves you the additional costs for expensive tubular film and prefabricated clips.

Packaging of cheese and dairy products

With the CHUB packaging machine almost all pumpable dairy products can be processed such as:
Butter: as a bar, portionable to slices. Herb butter, onion butter, paprika butter etc.
Curd: traditional Eastern European packaging with the CHUB.

Soft- and smoked cheese: portions of 50 up to 5000 g possible.
For soft cheese, a film is used in most cases, which must be characterized above all by high barrier and good shrinking properties. For curd and butter, heat-sealable Polyethylene or PE/PA composite films can be processed on the CHUB.
Generally a pump is connected to the CHUB to ensure a continuous product flow into the machine. Only a straight filling is required, without pre-portioning, as the dosing is done by volume on the CHUB. Additional options are available like having a dater or a registrator on the CHUB or sealing a tear stripe to the package (as an opening aid).

Do you have doubts whether a CHUB packaging machine will pay off for your production?
Just let us know your product- and production data and we will prepare a non-binding calculation sheet showing the costs per package, savings in packaging material and the resulting payback period.

Packaging of meat- and sausage products

The CHUB packaging machine is able to pack almost any kind of pumpable meat products such as boloney-type sausage, liver sausage. For boloney-type and liver sausage a film with high barrier- and good shrinking features is mostly used.
Heatsealable Polyamid and PE films can also be handled by the CHUB machine.

Depending on the viscosity of the product a vacuum filler or a mono pump is connected to the CHUB to ensure a continuous product flow into the machine. Only a straight filling is required, without pre-portioning, as the dosing is done by volume on the CHUB.

Now the thermal processing of the products can take place e.g. in a retort system. Hereby shelf lives of up to 90 days can be achieved without cooling.

After the thermal treatment and cooling process, the product requires a cleaning and at the same time – depending on the type of film – a post-shrinking. This should be done with approx. 96°C hot water. Due to the very high and multiple shrinkability of the film, a smooth and visually appealing product is obtained.

Further thermal treatments are possible by pasteurizing the product in water baths or steam cabinets. Additional options are available like having a dater or a registrator on the CHUB or sealing a tear stripe to the package (as an opening aid).

Packaging of convenience food

The CHUB packaging machine is able to pack almost any kind of pumpable prepared food products. For example:
Paste meals: spaghetti-bolognese or other kinds of noodles mixed with sauce.
Sauce: Sauce Bernaise, basic sauce for gravy etc.
Soups: bound soups and creamy soups such as pea-, lentil-, vegetable-, celery- or chicken soup
Puree/Mash: mashed potatoes, pea- and chestnut puree or polenta (corn puree).

For above mentioned products a film with high barrier and good shrinking features is mostly used. Depending on the product, heatsealable PE/PA composite films can also be handled by the CHUB.

Packaging of bakery products

Cookie- or biscuit dough: ready-to-use product which has to be cut into pieces and baked. Very user-friendly.
Marzipan: small portions of 100 or 250 g, but also portions up to 5000 g intended for supplies to bakeries and confectioneries can be produced.
Marmelade: 25 g portions for e.g. breakfast service, but also portions up to 5000 g intended for supplies to bakeries and confectioneries are possible.

For cookie- or biscuit dough as well as for marmelade normally a heatsealable Polyethylene film respectively a PE/PA composite film is used because of its steady calibre. For the packaging of marzipan heatsealable aluminum films are often used.
For cookie- or biscuit dough as well as for marmelade generally a vacuum filler is connected to the CHUB to ensure a continuous product flow into the machine. Only a straight filling is required, without pre-portioning, as the dosing is done by volume on the CHUB.

Additional options are available like having a dater or a registrator on the CHUB or sealing a tear stripe to the package (as an opening aid).

Packaging of pet food

With the CHUB packaging machine it is possible to produce a cost effective packaging for pet food products.
For this application either a film with high barrier and good shrinking features or heatsealable aluminum composite films can be used.

For pet food packaging generally a vacuum filler is connected to the CHUB to ensure a continuous product flow into the machine. Only a straight filling is required, without pre-portioning, as the dosing is done by volume on the CHUB.

The thermal treatment of the products can be done e.g. in a retort system. Hereby kernel temperatures of up to 125°C can be reached. After sterilizing and cooling process, the product requires a cleaning and at the same time a post-shrinking. This should be done with approx. 96°C hot water. The shelf-life of such products is now extended up to 6 months. Hot fillings are of course possible and are carried out at a product temperature of approx. 85°C.

Additional options are available like having a dater or a registrator on the CHUB or sealing a tear stripe to the package (as an opening aid).
